Warning America we were at an increased risk? I watched fox news for 1.5 hours today, and almost an hour was spent on the increased risk of a terror attack. In fact they were the ONLY cable news program to show the color coded terror alert level in the scroll at the bottom of the screen. And they did once every 2 minutes. Even as a conservative, i have never been a big fan of Fox, but does this go to show they get thier ratings from Americans that are so scared of arabs they will allow our government to do anything to make them feel safer? Did anyone else think this was exessive?

I remeber seeing a lot of gloating here just after the elections.

The current 14% confidence rating for Congress is down from 19% last year and is the lowest in Gallup’s history, surpassing the 18% confidence in Congress measured in 1991, 1993 and 1994.

I think I use proper etiquette but seldom am I politically correct.

What do you use when it comes to common, every day, life happenings?

We're politically more divided than ever. I don't see any possible way of reasoning with Fascist neocons myself. Trying to talk to them is useless, because online they use threats and name calling, and in real life they resort to physical violence.

Will America need to go through a civil war to destroy such elements? They are beyond the reach of reason.

I understand why we might want to give illegal immigrants legal residency here. Racist and dishonest employers abuse illegal immigrants because they know they are afraid that if they complain about the abuse, they could be deported. IF we legally acknowledge them, we would end this cycle of abuse. I don't understand why we should give them an opportunity to be a citizen. They are not the most desirable to become a citizen, because they already broke our laws. If we give them residency, we are giving what they want most, a higher standard of living. We promised them nothing, unlike our legal immigrants. They were warned not to come here, by the fact we made it illegal for them to be here. Any abuse they recieve was partially caused by them disregarding are warning not to come here. Why we should give them our greatest gift, the right to vote. I acknowledge they have rights, and giving them residency would fulfill that.

if its the military suffering the deadliest loss of any quarter since the beggining of the conflict - then you have commanders saying it will get worse before it gets better

When chenney or the AG refuse to answer, its executive priveledge

If its democrats trying to ask for data used or covered up, its a political ploy.

When you effort too hard to try to make yourself look squeaky clean every single time -- well then people will see youre full of crap in the long run.

If this administration just stopped and said, "okay we messed up here" then people will be more supportive.

But with bush denying every single thing -- it only makes people want to get them.

This came up in a college class on why Conservatives are always attacking scientists when it does not sync with Republican politics and money.

I was in Spencer's, there was a "penis pop", so to speak, on the counter where you pay. I was a few dollars short of a discount, so I thought what the hell. And since I had absolutely no use for it, I gave it to my friend.

I gave it to her outside the mall, by a large group of kids congregating. Naturally, "police officers" came up in order to break up the crowd, and when they saw the lolli-pop, one demanded her to hand it over, and threw it in the garbage can.

Did he have the right to do that? He claims it's because it is not family friendly, and we were outside on public property (Funny, though, because when we smoke, he calls it private property). However, they sell it inside the "family friendly" mall.

I can see how a liberal would think that by not allowing a woman to choose whether or not to give birth to their child, you are somehow taking a right to CHOOSE from her. But didn't she have the right to CHOOSE whether or not to have sex and with whom she would have sex with? Do liberals think that women are too dumb or too weak minded to make that kind of decision? Isn't their stance the more degrading to women?

"If HIV/AIDS were the leading cause of death of white women between the ages of 25 and 34, there would be an outraged outcry in this country," Clinton said in the biggest applause line of the night, bringing audience members to their feet.

What she should have said was that if black women between the ages of 18-34 would stop participating in risk behavior that leads to HIV/AIDS, there wouldn't be as big a problem with it killing young black people, both male and female.

It's amazing to me that Democrats don't look to actually solve a situation by establishing personal responsibility of the affected peoples, and try to change the critical behaviors that lead to these issues. Instead they look to through government money and controls at the problem, to be the big babysitter, which has been proven to do nothing in resolving the underlying issue.

What do you think?

She would give us a new direction and have a nice touch for the Government. ( Rich men who have always won really mess things up for the everyday American) A Black man/woman could also do wonders for the USA.

Could American racism push one day the huge Hispanic population towards acts of violence?
Since it's American negligence in enforcing its borders the reason so many sneaked in, and being their presence a fact, and massive deportation a dream, shouldn't mainstream America grant amnesty and go along with the Whitehose Immigration reform?
